HOST FORMATS

When specifying a host for the couchbase-cli command the following formats are expected:

couchbase://<addr>

<addr>:<port>

http://<addr>:<port>

It is recommended to use the couchbase://<addr> format for standard
installations. The other two formats allow an option to take a port number which
is needed for non-default installations where the admin port has been set up on
a port other that 8091.
